CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL - Sailor's Lament lyrics

rate me

Woke up early feelin' light, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>Somebody got to me last night, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>Sat down for a friendly duel, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>With one-eyed jacks 'n' jokers, too, (shame, it's a shame.)<br><br>Chorus:<br>Ooh, sailor man, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>Ooh, sailor man. (shame, it's a shame.)<br><br>Poormouth henry turned on me, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>Said, boy, I'm gonna pick you clean. (shame, it's a shame.)<br><br>Chorus<br>Oh!<br><br>Henry said, don't you mess that pile, (shame, it's a shame.)<br>Had three aces 'n' he had five. (shame, it's a shame.)<br><br>Chorus<br><br>Shame, it's a shame.<br>(repeat 5x)
